• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TK671 - Request & is already set as the current request ?

  The SAP error message TK671, which states "Request & is already set as the current request," typically occurs in the context of transport requests in the SAP system. This error indicates that the transport request you are trying to work with is already marked as the current request in the system, and therefore, you cannot set it again as the current request.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Action: You may be trying to set a transport request as the current request when it is already set as such.
  Session Issues: Sometimes, if multiple sessions are open, one session may have already set the request as current, leading to conflicts.
  Transport Management: The transport request might be locked or in use by another user or process.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Current Request: Verify which transport request is currently set as the current request. You can do this by navigating to the transport organizer (transaction code SE09 or SE10) and checking the status of the requests.
  Refresh the Session: If you suspect that the issue is due to session conflicts, try refreshing your session or logging out and back into the SAP system.
  Use a Different Request: If you need to work with a different transport request, ensure that you are not trying to set the same request again.
  Release the Request: If the request is locked or in use, you may need to release it or wait until the other user/process completes their work.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the transport request and resolve them if necessary.
